Comment:        Re: SHK 11.0346 Re: Saints & Sinners

I am coming to this topic a bit late, so please forgive me if someone
else has already mentioned this little tidbit.  In Love's Labour's Lost,
where charity and cupidity are confused in good old Chaucerian fashion,
there are two references to Saint Cupid (4.3.340 and 5.2.87).
Woudhuysen speculates in the Arden 3 edition of the play that "the usage
is possibly unique to Shakespeare" (222), a possibility of which I
remain skeptical.
